I am currently restoring my ipod 5 however half way through re-covering my ipod 5 Itunes says "locked with a password unlock ipod etc..." and turns on the ipod and my ipod is still disabled...
what do i do??

Try and force it into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

iOS: Unable to update or restore

Hi - I need help. I would like to use my old iPhone 3 as an iPod for music only. Problem is that my phone is locked with a password I can't remember. I havent used the phone since I got my iPhone 4. Anyone who know how I can reset the phone to standard?

Hi - I need help. I would like to use my old iPhone 3 as an iPod for music only. Problem is that my phone is locked with a password I can't remember. I havent used the phone since I got my iPhone 4. Anyone who know how I can reset the phone to standard installation or just get acces to the phone. There is no SIM card in the phone.

Hi Lawrence,
Thanks for your prompt response, however I have first seen it now. I have placed an active SIM card in the iPhone turned it off and on. It now says SIM locked, please write access code. The problem is I don't remember the password. When I connect it to iTunes it tell me that I have to write the password before it can be used with iTunes...... Do you have any good ideas? I see you are from the NYC area.... used to work there back in the early 90´ Those were good days..... What a City

My ipod stops half way through step 1 when I am syncing

I[od touch stops half way through step q which i backing up

I would try moving the existing backup to a safe place since there may be some corruption that is causing the problem. The backup file is located hre:
The folder where your backup data is stored changes depending on the computer's operating system. Since iTunes only keeps one backup per device, you should ensure the backup folder is included in your periodic data backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7).

Switched Ipod off half way through iOS 6 update and it's crashed, what do I do?

I moved away from a Wifi area while my Ipod Touch was updating it's software to iOS6, so i decided to take a risk and turn it off (stupid, i know) and now if i try to turn it back on it simply shows a blank coloured screen, different every time. I tried plugging it into the computer and resetting it, nothing has worked so far. I'm scared i've broken it completely, does any one have any suggestions?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPod Skips Half Way Through

My iPod Video 30gb Windows 1.2.1 has recently encountered an unusual problem which I can't seem to figure out with any kind of technical help.
When I play a song (half of them)it plays it to around half or 75% and skips all the way to the end and says theres a few seconds left and freezes. I have 401 songs and I used the On-The-Go playlist tool to make a list of all the songs that have issues, there were 219 songs. When I went to the root folder and played the music files that had problems it played perfectly all the way to the end. I have tried restoring it so many times and lost so many videos.
Any ideas would be nice.
BTW My iPod is still within warranty and I have around 230 days left of service can I take my iPod to an Apple Centre in Australia and ask them to fix it free of charge?
Thanks In Advance

Has it been doing that before the 1.2.1 update?
That is strange, you can take it back to the Apple Centre you purchased it from, or request a replacement from Apple vis this website:

Ripped music on iPod stops half way through

I ripped an audio CD (which is a dual disc) onto my computer and synced to my iPod. When I listen on my iPod, the songs are stopped at the half way point. The time on the song is correct (~3:00mins). I played the files in iTunes and they work as normal.
Is it something to do with my iPod? I will try to do other CDs to see if it does it on those.

Restoring ipad mini - stops half way through without error.

I have been searching around for answeres, but I havent found anything similar.
My ipad mini arrived from apple just a few days ago. I wasn´t able to connect to itunes, so I decided to try to restore it, in hope of making it easier to connect to itunes. I followed the procedure i found here and everything worked fine until I started to restore it i itunes. Itunes detected my ipad and told me I had to restore it. I started to restore and the software was successfully downloaded as the first step in itunes. After downloading it started to install the software to the ipad. After installing about 60% of it, it wont go further. It stops and stays frozen without continuing. There are no ERROR messages or anyting suggesting something is wrong. The same happens when I try the same procedure again.
I have tried to delete the software file in the "itunes folder" and download a new verson, still it doesn´t work. All software is updated and the macbook has been restarted.
I have been in contact with apple, but the people I have spoken to haven´t experienced this problem before. I hope you can help me.

You are going to have to keep trying. Thats all there is. If not you are going to have to drive to apple and get a new one. Yours should have a warrenty.

Imported image sequences get cut off half-way through

Hi there! I'm trying to import an image sequence (jpeg) into Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1 and having trouble getting the clip to play in entirety. My sequence is 24 fps and the footage I'm bringing in is a 5-second piece interpreted at 12 fps. (It was shot at 12 fps via Dragonframe software, on 1's). Unfortunately, the clip gets cut off half-way through. If I play it at 24 fps it's all there but much too short of course, and the wrong speed. If I play it back at 12 fps, only the first half or so of it shows up. All the files are numbered correctly, so there shouldn't be a cut-off. I feel like this might be some obvious problem, but google-and-forum searches have yielded nary a result. Anyone run into this or be able to tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Background info: I'm on a Dell Inspiron 1525, Windows Vista, 32-bit operating system, using Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1, importing jpegs as an image sequence/numbered stills. Not running any other software, codecs, playback engines etc. to my knowledge.
Many thanks!

Thanks, John and Jim.
I went in to change the Indeterminate Media Timebase to 12, but there's no such number option in CS4. The lowest is 23.9-something, and 24 is the next one up. After bringing the sequence in and playing it in the little preview box in the upper left-hand corner, everything's there, but bringing it into the time-line cuts it off. Is this a glitch? Any other known ways around it? Worst comes to worst I guess would be importing the sequence in two halves.

New songs I add to iTunes skip to the next song half-way through

Whenever I import new music that I have downloaded, iTunes skips to the next track half-way through. I don't have this problem with other songs, or when I transfer the songs to my iPhone or iPad. Does anyone know why this may be happening?

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the incomplete tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

BF tried to update to ios6 on iphone 4 but crashed half way through saying it needed to plugged into iTunes and then restored so after it was 'restoring' he had an error message come up say to couldn't be restored....what should be do next?

BF tried to update to ios6 on iphone 4 but crashed half way through saying it needed to plugged into iTunes and then restored so after it was 'restoring' he had an error message come up say to couldn't be restored....what should be do next as the phone is in a complete non working condition

Spent hours trying everything suggested and finally this morning hit on a solution. iTunes must be run as an administrator. Even though you are logged into your PC as an administrator, using the iTunes shortcut does not make you an administrator in iTunes. I found this out by using the diagnostics in iTunes and reading through the results report.
I am using Windows 7, so I clicked the start button and right clicked on iTunes and selected "Run as an adimistrator". The first restore attempt got the 4013 error. I then did the DFU thing, hold power and home buttons for 10 seconds, release power and continue holding home for 10 more seconds.
iTunes gave me the restore message and I clicked it. I clicked the restore iPhone button and it started. The drivers loaded a couple of times. I got the apple logo with the progress bar and this time instead of disappearing, it started to fill in.
End result, a successful restore to factory settings and a happy 14 year old.
Hope this helps others.

My iPod wants to play music half way through one song and then start the next one, or pick up in the next song were the first song was at. How do I fix this?

I've had it for the past few days that when I have a album playing it will play a song half way through and start the next one, however it still shows the first song name and the time that is on there. I don't know weather it's just a glich in the iPod itself or if there is something wrong with it all together.   I've never had this problem up until a few days ago, and I really don't know what to do about it.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
